Publisher's Description

Today we are desperately in need of examples of true Christian leadership. In the life of Robert Chapman we have such an example. Chapman was a widely respected Christian leader in England during the last century as a pastor, a teacher, and an evangelist. But he was best known for his remarkable life of love.

I have been in ministry for almost 30 years...this book, regarding the life of Chapman, opened my eyes afresh and anew as to what it means to 'speak the truth in love and walk in love.' Refreshing and insightful. It is one of those book I will read again and again...it never will replace the living Word of God...however, it is a powerful reminder to not only preach Christ...but LIVE CHRIST!

In his day Chapman was well known as a most godly man. His example of love and humility, combined with his fidelity to God and His word, shine out in the stories of this small book. God has used examples from his life to speak to me directly in my circumstances. This is a book that every person who desires to serve God should read and reread. It is of the highest order of true spiritual value.
